Siamese Cats

The photos of the Siamese cats are large and clear, as they show off their beautiful blue eyes.  This book talks mainly about the social characteristics of the cat, but does not state anything about grooming, life expectancy, etc.  Towards the end there is a photo of a young girl holding both a Siamese cat and a dog; the cat doesn’t look too happy.  However, the accompanying text states that Siamese cats are good with children and other animals. Sure doesn’t look that way, plus on the very next page under More Facts, it states Siamese cats tend to be jealous.  They would not be happy if you brought home another animal.  It seems that there is a contradiction here.  This book would be good for teaching young children about the table of contents, glossary and index.  However, in my opinion, the facts and information need to be beefed up some more.
